Until recently Supervisory Special Agent Lucy Guardino was a shining star in the FBI's roster. But after killing a man and disobeying orders, Lucy's been sidelined, chained to her desk. When a mysterious letter arrives hinting that, thanks to Lucy, the wrong man was blamed for a string of serial rapes, kidnappings, and killings four years ago, Lucy jumps at the chance to re-open the case??despite orders to leave well enough alone.

Her unofficial investigation takes her back to the small town that thrust her into the spotlight four years ago when she saved the killer's last victims??before the killer took his own life and the life of one final victim, a mother who left a ten year old son and loving husband behind.

What Lucy doesn't know is that what happened four years ago was all a lie, fueled by sacrifice and betrayal, designed to shield the real killer.

With the lives of her family, a group of innocent children, and the future of one desperate boy at risk, Lucy races to stop an innocent from killing and a killer from butchering more innocents.

When it comes to "breathtakingly fast-paced thrillers" (Publishers Weekly), New York Times and USA Today Bestseller CJ Lyons is a "master of the genre." (Pittsburgh Magazine).

Another Well-Written Page Turner by CJ Lyons

Blood Stained is the 2nd installment of the Lucy Guardino series by author, CJ Lyons, and the 3rd of her books I've read. All three books are very fast-paced reads that will have you turning pages rapidly.

Without retelling the story of this FBI Thriller, it features a great three-dimensional female protagonist in Lucy Guardino. Not quite so much about her family life in this book as there was in the first, but Lucy has just come off a devastating incident and isn't quite herself yet.

Here, Lucy is paired up with Postal Inspector, Jenna Galloway, and their relationship has its ups and downs, with a well-drawn competitiveness between the two women, especially on Jenna's side.

Lyons' intense story-telling keeps you engaged and not wanting to put your Kindle down for a second. This author is great at building tension chapter by chapter. The well-conceived alternating narratives move the plot forward quickly to its conclusion.

Readers should be warned, the subject matter is dark and disturbing. I found Bloodstained to be another super read by an author that is fast becoming one of my favourite crime writers. ( )

BLOOD STAINED by C.J. Lyons is an amazing fast paced,romantic thriller/suspense. Book #2 in “The Lucy Guardino FBI Thrillers”,but can be read as a stand alone. See, “Snake Skin”. “Blood Stained” has everything a thriller/suspense should have. It is packed full of suspense,mystery,action packed and very intense. Mix Dirty Harry,and a devoted Soccer Mom you have FBI agent specialist Lucy Guardino. Lucy is a loving wife,devoted mother,loves her job and would do anything to keep your family,and others safe. With a child predator,small town secrets,suspense,mystery,tortured victims,and a killer who is not only a sadist,torturer,but who is a child predator and just plain evil. As Lucy and her colleagues try to save lives,children,they endanger themselves,their family and must find a killer before he does more harm. A fast paced story with characters that jump off the page and capture your heart. I love Ms. Lyons’ stories. A not to miss read but not for tender readers with tender feelings.Oh, and have your issues ready as you travel with Lucy,her colleagues,Adam( a lost child) and others into the dark world of child predators,tortured children and finding a sadist. But BEWARNED: “Blood Stained” has violence that jumps off the page,adult situations,and a dark side to people.A MUST READ!Received for an honest review. Details can be found at the author’s website,Createspace, and My Book Addiction and More.

RATING: 5

HEAT RATING: MILD: Due to violent situations
